Grammar note, and red underline

[Rogers Katelem]

The text in green is the grammar note. How do I make it start on a new line instead of continuing on the same line with other elements?

This red underline is getting in the way, especially in the vernacular WS. It obscures the dot under the letter ọ, a frequently occurring letter. How do I turn off the red underline?

[Kevin Warfel]

The red underline can be removed by going to the Tools menu, hovering over Spelling, then unchecking Show Vernacular Spelling Errors.

To get a particular element in the display of your entry to begin on a new line, enter \0A into the Before box of the appropriate node in the Configure Dictionary tool. Below is a screenshot of the FLEx Help topic that provides this information. To find the correct node for adding this to the Before box, in either the Dictionary view or the Preview pane of the Lexicon Edit view, right-click on the element that you want to have begin on a new line, then choose Configure Dictionary View... That will, in most cases, take you directly to the correct node for configuring. In certain cases, it will take you close to the one that you need to configure. If you need more help, just ask.

Best wishes,

Kevin Warfel

Thank you very much Sir. That solves it. Earlier I tried [0A] but it didn't work. Now both issues are solved. Thanks also for the Help screenshot.

One more thing:

Can I also turn off the red underline in the English WS? You can see in the screenshot that though "come" is spelt correctly, it is still underlined in red.

I'm not sure about the red "squiggles" on the English. I'm hoping that someone else can help you on that. I'm guessing that it's related to how you have spell-checking set up for the English WS, but I don't have experience with that.

For the spell checking on the English WS, you can check the settings in Format / Setup Analysis Writing System. You can either change the spelling dictionary setting to English, or set to none.

I chose "NONESELECTED" because I can't find English as an option. That worked. Thank you.

You can add dictionaries, if you need. See instructions here:

Done. Thank you.
